A strength of questionnaires for studying parental attitudes is that they don’t have many ethical issues. This is because if the parent doesn’t want to fill out the questionnaire they don’t have to so informed consent would not be a problem. Also, even though the researcher could ask sensitive questions like the respondents own experiences of school, they do not have to answer. Yet, because questionnaires can be confidential and anonymous, parents may be more inclined to answer questions as it would not belittle them in any way or create judgement as the researcher is completely detached from the parent. However, the researcher would need to make it very clear to the parents that they do not have to answer questions and guarantee their anonymity.
Her French, Boys and Girls, school was abolished because the leaders felt it was inappropriate and against Islam to have Boys and Girls in the same school. Marjane goes through many phases. Marji starts thinking she is the last prophet and has conversations with god every night. Marji’s parents bought her many books on the history of communists and world history. Marji learns a lot from these books and reads them a lot throughout the novel when she is confused.
Additionally, there is an incredible level of detachment caused by the impersonal nature of these online courses among students and student as well as teacher and student. In my opinion, I agree with Kiefer that there is much lost to the all over detachment harbored by the online educational platform. Although, the online learning experience concur with my lifestyle. I feel that my education experience would be more positive, and I could have benefited greatly if my classes were face to face classes. Online learning poses a great deal of questions concerning the value for many reasons.

lagerism has always been a huge concern towards teachers and administrators who want students work to represent their own efforts and to reflect the outcomes of their learnings.however, with the advent with the internet and easy access to almost limitless written material on every conceivable topic. plagerisim is stealing other people's work and ideas which makes you who you are. professors expect students to use their own words and imagination to see the abilities they have in writing. the worst part of it is that most students dont know how professors can be that smart to tell that it is a plagerized paper. students can be very addicted to plagerizing since it is very easy to find any type of information.

Should students and parents have the option of whether or not to use technology? There is even the question of whether or not this is the “wave of the future,” or if it is simply a fad that will eventually pass. While technology has its benefits in aiding students learning, overall technology causes distractions and costs too much money. Compared to traditional classrooms, studies have shown that courses for which computer based learning was used, that student to student, and student to teacher increased while also increasing student to teacher interactions with lower performing students, but didn’t decrease the traditional forms of communication used (American Library Association, The Effectiveness of Technology is Schools: A Summary of Recent Research, Ellen Bialo and Jay Sivin-Kachala). Many students don’t like to communicate with teacher’s in-front of their peers for fear of being made fun of, therefor technology makes it easier to ask questions and get help when it’s needed.
In comparing both learning in the classroom versus online there are many difference s and similarities in skills/learning development and socializing; both having their own positive and negative impacts on students. When asking students and conducting research on the topic I found there to be a lot of opinions on the benefits of online learning. Some of the benefits of online learning can include solutions to scheduling conflicts, enhancement and expanding of skills pertaining to digital learning and extra time to complete projects, giving the students a less chance of dropping out (Metz, 2010). Aside from these benefits students online are able to socialize with international students they would most likely not get the chance to communicate with in the traditional classroom setting. This can be intriguing to students who want to learn more from other cultures.
I was able to maintain a 3.8 GPA through everything but I was put on academic probation for my scholarships. The experience was traumatic one that I would never forget especially the mean people in the Juvenile Detention Center and mase. Upon returning to school she started again and we had an argument, we were suspended for 10 more days and token back to JDC for a campus disruption. Finally, I got kicked out which was the happiest day of my life; I was going to a much better place where I’d always wanted to go Lakewood High School. I wish I could’ve went to Lakewood as a freshmen and maybe I wouldn’t have been in so much trouble, which was definitely a learning experience.
